Significance and Use4.1 It has been shown that bending stresses that inadver-tently occur due to misalignment between the applied force andthe specimen axes during the application of tensile andcompressive forces

The objective is toimplement the use of common terminology and methods forverification of alignment of testing machines, associated com-ponents and test specimens.4.2 Alignment verification intervals when required arespecified in the methods or practices that require

Verification of Alignment5.1 A numerical requirement for alignment should specifythe force, strain-gaged alignment transducer dimensions, andtemperature at which the measurement is to be made.Alternatemethods employed when strain levels are of particular impor-tance may be

29、used as described in Practices E466 or E606.When these methods are used, the numerical requirementshould specify the strain levels, strain-gaged alignment trans-ducer dimensions and temperature at which the measurement isto be made.NOTE 1For a misaligned load train, the percent bending usuallydecrea

30、ses with increasing applied force. (See Curves A, B, and C in Fig.2.) However, in some severe instances, percent bending may increase withincreasing applied force. (See Curve D in Fig. 2.)5.2 For a verification of alignment to be reported in com-pliance with the current revision of E1012 a strain-ga

This applies to both Type 1and Type 2 levels of alignment verification.5.2.1 This standard defines two types of classified testingmachine alignment per the classification criteria. The type ofalignment shall be noted on the report.5.2.2 When performing an align

36、ute for a verification of alignment usinga strain-gaged alignment transducer.5.3 Testing Machine Alignment Type 1A general align-ment verification of the defined load train components. It isunderstood that some parts of the testing machine (that is, thecrosshead, actuator or grip faces) may be moved

37、 or exchangedin normal day to day testing. This alignment verification shouldbe conducted for the various changes to the system (that is,adjusting the crosshead and actuator position) to demonstratereproducibility between changing conditions. Whenever pos-sible the alignment verification should be c

38、onducted with thetesting system components at a physical position that wouldsimulate the position in which a test specimen would beinstalled. The strain-gaged alignment transducer geometry andmaterial shall be adequately referenced in the verificationreport.NOTE 2Type 1 typically refers to static te

39、st equipment, such as tensile,stress rupture, or creep machines.NOTE 3For creep and stress rupture machines, the lever arm should bein a level position when performing alignment verification.5.3.1 For some material testing, it is not possible or feasibleto use all parts of the force application comp

40、onents whenverifying alignment. In such cases alternative components maybe used. The use of alternative components shall be adequatelyreferenced in the verification report.5.4 Testing Machine Alignment Type 2Grip-to-grip align-ment verification, where the testing machine mechanical con-figuration is

41、 fixed and will not be changed or adjusted duringthe testing period. However, when testing some specimengeometries, it may be necessary to move the actuator orcrosshead to install the strain-gaged alignment transducerand/or test specimens. This should be avoided if possible, butif it is necessary, c

43、cision machined grip housings with hydraulic orpneumatically actuated wedge inserts are commonly used inlaboratory testing. These devices are specifically designed toallow for interchangeability of wedge inserts without adverselyaffecting the alignment of the loading train. For testing systemsusing

44、these gripping configurations, grip wedge inserts may bereplaced with smooth wedge inserts to assess the alignment ofthe testing machine under a Type 2 alignment assessment.NOTE 4Type 2 typically refers to dynamic test equipment, such asfatigue testing machines.NOTE 5Type 2 alignment requires as man

45、y of the adjustable compo-nents of the testing machine as possible to be positioned in the finalverified position. This could include adjustable reaction components (thatis, crosshead) and actuators, which may otherwise be free to rotate aboutthe loading axis.5.5 Strain-gaged alignment transducers s

46、hall be manufac-tured per Section 7 of this standard. The strain-gaged align-ment transducer is to be manufactured per section 7.4 asclosely as possible, except that any notches may be eliminated.The same strain-gaged alignment transducer may be used forsuccessive verifications. The materials and de
